The Chateau Belle Assise Coureau Grand Cru 2015 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc showcases a striking deep ruby-garnet hue, immediately captivating the eye with its rich color.
The first impression on the nose is a delightful medley of savory aromas, including mineral complexity, cedar's warm, inviting scent, and an intriguing touch of exotic spices. As the bouquet unfolds, it reveals more delicate nuances, such as ripe red plum, dark black cherry, fragrant violet, and the warm notes of allspice that entice the senses.
This full-bodied wine on the palate presents a tightly woven structure, where the tannins offer a firm backbone supporting a plush, velvety texture. The flavor profile is diverse and layered, with vibrant notes of juicy black raspberry and luscious plum preserves intertwined with hints of leather and an assortment of savory herbs.

James Suckling 93 points: The aromas of ripe berries, chocolate, and dried flowers are impressive. Full-bodied, tight, and structured with a long, powerful finish. Muscular and focused. Give it two or three years to come together. Better in 2021.
Jeb Dunnuck 92 points: The Merlot-dominated 2015 Château Belle Assise Coureau is a smoking value that I suspect can be found for even less than the listed retail price. It offers a classic bouquet of red currants, red plums, dried flowers, cedar wood, and earth in a medium-bodied, seamless, seductive style that’s just impossible to resist. It’s not the densest or most age-worthy Saint-Emilion out there, but it has class, and I guarantee it will put a smile on your face over the coming 7 to 8 years.
